Your day-to-day involves providing personalized in-home care, ranging from quick drop-ins to extended overnight or live-in stays. You will follow detailed care instructions regarding feeding, litter maintenance, socialization, and medication administration. A key part of your role is maintaining the highest level of cleanliness and respect for client homes, while also sending timely updates with notes and photos to keep owners connected with their pets.
